In a major breakthrough for the security forces, a United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) terrorist was apprehended in Tengakhat last night for his alleged involvement in a blast in Dibrugarh's Convoy Road on the Republic Day.

The police also recovered one motorcycle with two different registration numbers from his possession.

Earlier on January 26, three army jawans were killed and four others sustained injuries when the vehicle they were travelling in was damaged after an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) planted by suspected ULFA terrorists exploded.

Further details are awaited.
